there are many people who do.
And what about an early '80s GSX400 Impulse? Not ACS enough?

Hello Captain chaos. Thats why its good to discuss this. The only thing is we need to cut the line somewhere. Or else we will have AP50s, gp100. Etc etc. GS125 blah blah.

that's why i suggested 4 cilinder aircooled Suzuki's. That includes GSX 400 F's, and everything bigger.

In between doing jobs I pop online to see whats happening? Looking at the index board and too be honest the lack of activity on some area's,Id say open things up to allow more people in and give the site a bit of a kick start.
im going to probably be unpopular with the big capacity snobs,but if anybody spent the time to build a nice 400-4 aircooled suzuki,Id say well done and appreciate the workmanship. Why couldnt it then fit in here? I recall a time years and years ago when I was (ahem..)a lot younger,a local lad had a nicely painted GS550,with a 4-1,and i thought it was mega cool. Imagine now,a forty plus year old bloke wanting to relive his youth,who's maybe bought a GS550 or similar who wants do something with it (yes,put it a skip..)? I fancy a GS750... but it wouldnt be welcome here.
Im lucky enough to have as I type several litre plus bikes in my various sheds and could easily say little ones are rubbish,but think as much as I love the site,it will by its nature have limited numbers otherwise.
Let me see,it could be a forum for fans of air cooled suzuki motorcycles.
I'll get my coat...

Im sure the likes of OSS started off small and ended up very large with a lot of good stuff.
This site has the makings of one of the great sites on the net,as loads of people enjoy a nice air cooled suzuki. Im spreading the word to anybody who I think is interested,with my pal megawatt hopefully being here soon with his Pendine sands race bike. If we all encourage others to join, the site will become massive.
Events at Squires/Pendine etc will do no harm and im sure increase the numbers.
A good thing me thinks.

We will never be as big as OSS thats not a bad thing. Cos we will only be air cooled with a litgle bit on oil boiling a air cooled bike. OSS had. Air. Oil. Water etc. Was cool though. Dont need this to be huge. Needs to be cool. Someone wants to do a mag article on my wifes Kat i built for her so that will be spreading the word in the mags

I'm with the open it up to other (smaller) air cooled Suzi's as there's plenty of cracking sub 1000 bikes out there & plenty of folk with good knowledge of them

i was thinking of having some aircooledsuzuki stickers made up for my EFE,then realised its going to be oil cooled!
I think with events and magazine mentions the site will go from strength to strength.
